The galaxy's worst nightmare is back, the ultimate killing machines with a thirst quenched only by the death and destruction of everything in their path. Planetary outpost LV-426's only hope for survival are the colonial marines, a military force tasked with the rescue of the Hadley’s Hope terraforming colony. Before too long this rescue mission begins to turn sour, becoming a battle for survival against an unspeakable evil that are the Xenomorths.

From the critically acclaimed developers at Gearbox software, the very same team responsible for such hits as Brothers in Arms and the world-renowned Borderlands franchise, comes the first original Aliens game in over a decade; a true sequel to James Cameron's highly popular Aliens, itself a sequel to the 1979 classic. The terror is back, and is smarter, stronger, and more relentless than ever.

Don't worry about the difficulty though, because two-player co-operative mode is always an option. Take on the Alien scum alone, or with a friend, the choice is one which only you can make. This special limited edition contains an exclusive extra weapon, the highly coveted flamethrower, as used by Ripley in the classic film series.
